On her brand new single, “Out of Line,” Macy O stomps confidently into her power as a fearless, unadulterated banger that’s as musically bold as emotionally vulnerable. Macy is known for filtering pop and alt influences through a sound that is uniquely her own, and her latest song proves she is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to genre-fluid music that knows no boundaries. With glassy vocals and a bold, unruly presence, Macy O doesn’t hold back on “Out of Line.” Made with just the right edge, the song pulses with layered emotion, part defiance, part revelation.
Mentored by vocal coach extraordinaire Annabel Williams (BGT, Eurovision), it is Macy’s technical brilliance rivaled only by her emotional candor given someone so young. Every note she sings feels hard-won, lived-in. The tension in “Out of Line” is measured and gripping as Macy toggles between fragility and insubordination, soft and pensive in one moment and electric in the next. This duality makes the song magnetic in the first place, as does the sound of a woman seizing her voice, stripping off the layers of expectation, and stepping fully into herself.
Although her debut album, “Journeys,” released in 2023, introduced us to Macy’s mix of sass, soul, and sincerity, this single plays as a pivot and an evolution. Her development as a writer and performer is indisputable. If “Journeys” was Macy telling us who she is, “Out of Line” is her showing us who she will not be. And now, with the forthcoming release of her hotly anticipated EP “RÉPERTOIRE” (July 11th), Macy is showing no signs of turning off anytime soon.
